The Bolt is not shinny like in pic, it is a reflection. Barrel is stamped 1955 but doesn't have all the numbers like the WW2 barreled ones I have. Op rod is marked NM and everything on the rifle looks like its GI Parts. Springfield receiver, serial number dates it as a 1942 rifle. I suspect it is just a M1 Garand that has been made into a M1D out of parts, mostly because I have no proof otherwise nor any way to verify one way or the other. The Scope is a M84, very little dust inside, kinda rare for them this old... No Import marks, gas cylinder shows more scuffs and marks than the rest of the rifle. Overall looks real nice with a nice bore and a lot cheeper than one with the proper papers.

edited for lower price and to say I would be interested in some trades, for instance, I would like a us prop marked pistol or a 3 band springfield rifle, perhaps a brown bess.
